V-Commandos - August update

News

Let's start with good news for the backers: your V-Commandos (base game) boxes will get an exclusive spot UV printing, making your box really unique! We produced 1100 copies of these special boxes and while I am writing this update, there are only about 60 left: if you selected for a REPORTER pledge (print and play) and planned for an upgrade, it is the right time to do it (more info below). Once there are no boxes left, pledges will become invisible.

Important information (please read carefully)!

We will lock down Backerkit on September 10th 2016 (12 PM New York Time).

Before that, some of you have a few steps to accomplish. To do so, access your Backerkit page:

> Accessing your Backerkit survey

If not done yet, it is time to complete your survey to enter/update your shipping address and credit card info.

If you are not sure, search for an email from Backerkit titled: "Survey Confirmation -- V-Commandos". You can’t find it? Go to https://v-commandos.backerkit.com and enter your email address. If you backed V-Commandos during the Kickstarter campaign, use the same email address as the one you used on Kickstarter. Once you have filled out your survey, you will receive the email "Survey Confirmation -- V-Commandos from Backerkit". At the bottom of this email, you can find a link to access your survey anytime.

> Shipping fees

As announced on each pledge detail on Backerkit and on the Kickstarter page, all backers (except those in the USA, Canada, France and Belgium) will have to pay for an additional shipping fees. We have updated those shipping fees on Backerkit, please add the amount corresponding to your initial pledge.

We did our best to reduce the cost as much as we could. These fees are available here on each pledge (in Canadian dollars).

> Pledge upgrade

You may also want to upgrade your pledge, for example to switch from a REPORTER pledge (print and play) to any other pledge including a physical box.

You must know that only Backers from the Kickstarter campaign can upgrade their pledge. Backers from Backerkit have 2 options: cancel their pledge and then create a new one, or ask me to do it for you (info [at] triton-noir [dot] com).

If you selected a pledge including the V-Commandos base game box and want so switch for a pledge including 1 or 2 expansions, we still have a few hundred expansions boxes, which will be enough for pre-orders (but certainly not for the game's release). This change will still be possible, even if the pledges are invisible, by asking me to do the change for you until September 10th (12 PM New York Time).

It's been a long time since the survey and Backerkit confirmation, so I'm a bit confused.
I thought I already paid for shipping somewhere along the line, but after the last update I checked I couldn't find the information anywhere.
If it isn't the case, the cost will be the one currently listed on Backerkit?

@JKP: I sent all the photos I got from the manufacturer, you can see on these pics that the manufacturing is at an advanced stage. The UV is not a last minute desicison, It was planned months ago. We are still on track for November-December (depending on where you are located), we plan to communicate an ETA in the next update.

"V-Commandos (base game) boxes will get an exclusive spot UV printing"
WILL GET?? This sounds to me like they haven't even been done yet but I see pics of boxes. Are they done or not? Still no ETA (other than the Nov 2015 one)?
